Inquiry launched into PNG violence

Inquiry launched into PNG violence

How long can Scott INFO PAD Morrison cower behind secrecy?

Now there's blood in his hands he can no longer hide. 



The security firm G4S, which manages the detention centre, denied
claims of attacks inside the centre. In a statement, G4S said it had
removed all ''non-essential'' staff from the compound, along with asylum
seekers who were not participating in the protest. The statement said
the asylum seekers were injured once they left the detention centre.



The opposition spokesman for immigration, Richard Marles,
calling for an inquiry into the incident. ''It's becoming apparent that
Manus Island is melting down on Minister Morrison's watch,'' he said on
ABC 24.



The Refugee Rights Action Network's Victoria Martin said:
''Last night's attack was a massacre. It was a pre-meditated attack on
unarmed and defenceless asylum seekers, some of which have escaped war
and are now being put back into, what is essentially a war zone. Manus
Island is lawless.''



The Greens have demanded that the Manus Island centre be closed.



Greens leader Senator Christine Milne accused the government
of ''bragging'' about poor conditions at the facility. ''Ministerial
responsibility has to mean something and Scott Morrison has to stop
hiding,'' Senator Milne said.
